4 months ago I asked the forum to grade my ASM 300. I sent it to CGC and below is the result.

Above is the link to the archived thread.

Amazing Spider-Man 300 5/88
Grade: 7.5 WHITE

Grader Notes:
light bends to cover
light staining to cover
spine stress lines breaks color
wear all corners cover breaks color

Looks better than a 7.5 but the defects dictate... Solid looking issue and presents amazingly...

See what I did there??? : )

@GAC

I'm assuming the book was not pressed?

@Bronte correct, not pressed....possible grade bump with a press....might consider it at a later time.

I think the spine ticks on the back cover did it. The back cover has lots of black, making this book highly susceptible. Also the soft bottom right corner.

Love these. Apparently I didn't partake in the initial thread so I went back and looked at that thread and the images before seeing the results. I honestly had it at exactly a 7.5

I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie. flanders private msg quote post Address this user
Great book glad the forum didn't set unreasonable expectations.

looks like a 50 to 100.00 dollar difference up to a 9.0...at least for now...so what's it cost to press and regrade these days? 50 or 75.00 including shipping both ways...may not be cost effective especially if after all that, it doesn't get a bump

@Watcher CBCS charges $16 per other pressers charge $10 and up. If you are already sending for grading it’s usually worth it.

@GAC Nice copy. Shoot me a PM if you ever sell😉
